2 John 1
The scripture text is the public-domain World English Bible. “Diesel the Magus Version” names this study edition, comparison system, and commentary lens—not a hidden rewrite of the biblical text.
The elder, to the chosen lady and her children, whom I love in truth; and not I only, but also all those who know the truth;
The elder unto the elect lady and her children, whom I love in the truth; and not I only, but also all they that have known the truth;
for the truth's sake, which remains in us, and it will be with us forever:
For the truth’s sake, which dwelleth in us, and shall be with us for ever.
Grace, mercy, and peace will be with us, from God the Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ, the Son of the Father, in truth and love.
Grace be with you, mercy, and peace, from God the Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ, the Son of the Father, in truth and love.
I rejoice greatly that I have found some of your children walking in truth, even as we have been commanded by the Father.
I rejoiced greatly that I found of thy children walking in truth, as we have received a commandment from the Father.
Now I beg you, dear lady, not as though I wrote to you a new commandment, but that which we had from the beginning, that we love one another.
And now I beseech thee, lady, not as though I wrote a new commandment unto thee, but that which we had from the beginning, that we love one another.
This is love, that we should walk according to his commandments. This is the commandment, even as you heard from the beginning, that you should walk in it.
And this is love, that we walk after his commandments. This is the commandment, That, as ye have heard from the beginning, ye should walk in it.
For many deceivers have gone out into the world, those who don't confess that Jesus Christ came in the flesh. This is the deceiver and the Antichrist.
For many deceivers are entered into the world, who confess not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh. This is a deceiver and an antichrist.
Watch yourselves, that we don't lose the things which we have accomplished, but that we receive a full reward.
Look to yourselves, that we lose not those things which we have wrought, but that we receive a full reward.
Whoever transgresses and doesn't remain in the teaching of Christ, doesn't have God. He who remains in the teaching, the same has both the Father and the Son.
Whosoever transgresseth, and abideth not in the doctrine of Christ, hath not God. He that abideth in the doctrine of Christ, he hath both the Father and the Son.
If anyone comes to you, and doesn't bring this teaching, don't receive him into your house, and don't welcome him,
If there come any unto you, and bring not this doctrine, receive him not into your house, neither bid him God speed:
for he who welcomes him participates in his evil works.
For he that biddeth him God speed is partaker of his evil deeds.
Having many things to write to you, I don't want to do so with paper and ink, but I hope to come to you, and to speak face to face, that our joy may be made full.
Having many things to write unto you, I would not write with paper and ink: but I trust to come unto you, and speak face to face, that our joy may be full.
The children of your chosen sister greet you. Amen.
The children of thy elect sister greet thee. Amen.
